FAQ
Rail Freight Questions, Answered
What is intermodal rail shipping?
Intermodal moves your freight in a container or trailer that travels by more than one mode on a single journey: by truck to the rail yard, by train for the long haul, and by truck again for final delivery. The freight stays in the same container the whole way.
What's the difference between COFC and TOFC?
COFC (container on flatcar) puts shipping containers on rail flatcars. TOFC (trailer on flatcar) puts a whole truck trailer on the train for the long haul, then a truck finishes the trip by road. We offer both.
When is rail cheaper than trucking?
Rail usually costs less per mile than over-the-road trucking on long distances and high, steady volumes. For short hauls or very urgent freight, trucking is usually the better choice.
Is rail freight slower than truck?
Rail typically takes longer than a direct truck, because of rail yard handling and train schedules. It suits freight with some flexibility in delivery date, where the lower cost per mile matters more.
What is transloading?
Transloading moves freight between rail and truck, for example from a railcar into a trailer, at a facility near the destination. It lets you use rail for the long haul even if the final stop has no rail access.
Is rail better for the environment?
Yes. Intermodal rail is one of the most fuel-efficient ways to move freight at scale, so it produces lower emissions per ton-mile than trucking alone.
